What's the appeal of tapered jeans? - Page 7

Ok, so what brands do you guys recommend for a slim (not skinny) jean that has a slight taper? What's considered a slight taper and what's considered a drastic taper?

I'm 6'1", 175lbs, and I'm looking for a good jean with a little bit of a taper. Any suggestions?

APC NS taper is pretty slight, my 28's go from about 8" at the knee to 7.5" at the hem

this is very subtle troll.

What are some other brands, too? I'd like to take a look at a few online and their measurements/colours/washes and so on.

I've taken to tapered jeans personally because I'm pretty thin but my thighs are enough bigger than my calves that a true straight leg puddles a little below the knee. Something with a little taper gives a cleaner appearance.
